The Children's Center now includes Child Care for 64 children, 2 - 5 years of age; half-day Nursery School for 78 children in 2, 3 and 4 year old programs; and After School Care for 18 children, grades K - 3.  Our total enrollment potential is 160; our attendance capacity is 120.

Hours of operation are 7:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m., Monday - Friday.  We are licensed by the North Carolina Department of Human Resources, Division of Child Development and Early Education.  We have a 4 Star Rated License.

​​

The purpose of the Martha Best Children's Center program is to provide, in a safe and nurturing environment, child care services, nursery school experiences and after school care for the children who are enrolled.

​​

The Children's Center is an integral program of the First Baptist Church and as such relates with other church programs through appropriate church committees and structure.

​​

Under responsible supervision and guidance, the emphasis of the program is focused on the total development of the child as it relates to physical, social, emotional, intellectual and spiritual development.​​
